 | There had been
promises of inheritance and blessing,
the Spirit of God at work,
a nation brought out of slavery,
the law of God given,
the priests giving ordinances,
the prophets calling for repentance,
the kings leading the people,
John the Baptist with a baptism
of repentance for the forgiveness of sins,
and Christ the Lord teaching the people
the words of God.
But the people still needed
to be reconciled to God.
How did Christ reconcile us to God?
He went to the cross in our place,
so that in him we might become
the righteousness of God.
Trust Christ for that reconciliation
that he obtained for you on the cross,
and he will give you the free gift of eternal life.

| and this property
of the woman to be the advocate of the idea of pairing is the only one
which is found in women of all ages, in young girls, in adults, and in
the aged. The old woman is no longer interested in her own union, but
she devotes herself to the pairing of others. This habit of the old
woman is nothing new, it is only the continuance of her enduring
instinct surviving the complications that were caused when her personal
interests came into conflict with her general desire; it is the now
unselfish pursuit of the impersonal idea. . . .
The effort of woman to realize this idea of pairing is so fundamentally
opposed to that conception of innocence and purity, the higher virginity
which man's erotic nature has demanded from women, that not all his
erotic incense would have obscured her real nature but for one factor. I
have now to explain this factor which has veiled from man the true
nature of woman, and which in itself is one of the deepest problems of
woman, I mean her absolute duplicity. Her pairing instinct and her
duplicity, the latter so great as to conceal even from woman herself
what is the real essence of her nature, must be explained together. . .
